Looks like [Orochon](http://orochonramen.com/) finally posted a scan of my polaroid on their website: > > [](https://eecue.com/p/30932/Orochon.html) > > > Just seeing this picture makes me hungry for some ~~painful burning~~ ramen. I wrote about my [experience at Orochon](http://blogging.la/archives/2006/02/orochon.phtml) earlier this year.

Last weekend, [the wife](http://peneloper.com/) and I drove up to Angel's Gate and did a portrait session with the beautiful setting sun as our backdrop. I used two strobes, at roughly 45 degrees and 10 feet back from Penelope. The strobes were bounced off of white umbrellas raised up about 8 or 9 feet. The light ratio was 1:4 between key and fill. I triggered the flashes with my trusty set of PocketWizard Plus IIs and metered with my Sekonic L-558R. Shot with a Canon EOS 30D and an EF 85mm f/1.2 L. My wife is a beautiful and patient model.
